Love my cossie to bits but. . . . . . .

Really miss having a hot hatch to blast about in , drove a clio172 the other day had it on three wheels on a round about such fun

Wish I could afford to run two cars, anyone else in the same boat.

Ginge !

what you mean you miss having a cossie on your drive or you currantly have a cossie on the drive

if its thre first i found an quick solution for ya mate


look on ebay and buy a 1.6gl sierra,,,,,,,,,, park that on you drive and they hand you wallet over to your missus and let her spunk all you cash in return for using her car for going to work everyday as the sierra is just abandoned on the drive


now the only difference with you and a cossie owner is the model of car it states on the sorn letter you fill in each year


welcome to the gang

vroooom ptssssh

Put the cossie away for winter and run an XR2 for when it's hibernating

Ginge !

then use the cossie in the summer when the fooker wont start after its hiberbation,,,,,,,,,, thats what fucking happened to mine, was working fine and i ran it up until december when i took it off the road as it was running perfect and wanted to have it for summer,,,,,,, started it in march and the fooker jhad a intermittant fault that i couldnt seem to find



i say buy the clio

i miss my old xr3i... but i don't think i could cope without cossie power now.

i say keep the cos!

See.

I'm going the opposite way, i have a hot, well warm hatch, an 05 206 GTi, and i'm ust baout to buy a saff cossie.

I've said it's for weekends and the odd blat about, but i know (and so does the wife if she really thinks about it) that i'll use it more and more.

So, just need to release the cash. An there is a clean looking exaple only 2 miles away from me..... I hope he can't sell it...

Never gunna sell me cossie, couldnt part with it . . . . going sideways is a lot more fun than anything a hot hatch can do!

Just miss having a hatch that I dont reaally care about tbh

my and claire (my wife ) havent decided what to get a a second car after the battlebus (mondy estate) fails the mot at the ends of the month!!!! we have been toying with the idea of either a fiesta rs turbo, a pick up like a smoker toyot hilux, or a camper van. i dont want a camper but cant decied out of the FRST or the smoker. wanna go drivein round europe again next year and fancy the hilux for all the gear, and a bit of euro off roading!!!!!!!!!

Our Second car is a RENUALT MEGANE! what a fuckin shed! thats deff going!

Did have a 306xsi for a coupla years that was great fun and had a gti-6 that was brilliant in the twisty bits, just lacked power

I guess the compromise is an ESCOS . . . . . . .one day

Cant fault 172's at all, top cars for what they are

PeterLucas

Agree mate, handled superbly!

Just lacked that pin you in the seat type feeling
